As many organisations are taking precautions to tackle the COVID-19 (coronavirus), Mates in Mind are continuing to support workforces with their mental wellbeing, especially those who are working remotely during this period.
We know that many of us are now working remotely in order to reduce risk to businesses and individuals across the UK. Therefore, we have developed factsheets for organisations and individuals in order to help them protect their mental health and wellbeing as we tackle uncertain times.

World Suicide Prevention Day 2020
This September 10, marks World Suicide Prevention Day 2020, an annual awareness day created to establish worldwide commitment and action on suicide prevention.
Mates in Mind believes in breaking the silence and stigma surrounding mental ill-health is a crucial step towards providing a safe and healthy workplace environment, which can play a vital role in suicide prevention.
Research suggests that open and honest communication about mental ill-health supports steps towards suicide prevention because these important conversations have the power to increase awareness and understanding, remind people they are not alone and help break the stigma which can be a barrier for those seeking help. Mates in Mind are encouraging you to use this awareness day as an opportunity to #StartTheConversation within your workplace.
To support you in these conversations they have collated a number of resources and information on their Suicide Prevention Day hub, which will be continually updated.
